Aster glehni F. Schmidt Extract Modulates the Activities of HMG-CoA Reductase and Fatty Acid Synthase

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Aster glehni F. Schmidt (AG), is a natural product known to have anti-obesity effects, but the mechanism underlying these effects is not well documented. We hypothesized that AG may have inhibitory effects on enzymes related to lipid accumulation. Herein,

Strongly Refuting Random CSPs Below the Spectral Threshold

open access: yes, 2016
Random constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are known to exhibit threshold phenomena: given a uniformly random instance of a CSP with $n$ variables and $m$ clauses, there is a value of $m = \Omega(n)$ beyond which the CSP will be unsatisfiable with ...

Inversion improves the recognition of facial expression in thatcherized images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Thatcher illusion provides a compelling example of the face inversion effect. However, the marked effect of inversion in the Thatcher illusion contrasts to other studies that report only a small effect of inversion on the recognition of facial ...

Sparse self-attention aggregation networks for neural sequence slice interpolation

open access: yesBioData Mining, 2021
Background Microscopic imaging is a crucial technology for visualizing neural and tissue structures. Large-area defects inevitably occur during the imaging process of electron microscope (EM) serial slices, which lead to reduced registration and semantic

Learning optimised representations for view-invariant gait recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Gait recognition can be performed without subject cooperation under harsh conditions, thus it is an important tool in forensic gait analysis, security control, and other commercial applications.

Rapid Interactive and Intuitive Segmentation of 3D Medical Images Using Radial Basis Function Interpolation

open access: yesJournal of Imaging, 2017
Segmentation is one of the most important parts of medical image analysis. Manual segmentation is very cumbersome, time-consuming, and prone to inter-observer variability. Fully automatic segmentation approaches require a large amount of labeled training

A framework for forensic face recognition based on recognition performance calibrated for the quality of image pairs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Recently, it has been shown that performance of a face recognition system depends on the quality of both face images participating in the recognition process: the reference and the test image. In the context of forensic face recognition, this observation

Redundant neural vision systems: competing for collision recognition roles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ability to detect collisions is vital for future robots that interact with humans in complex visual environments. Lobula giant movement detectors (LGMD) and directional selective neurons (DSNs) are two types of identified neurons found in the visual ...

An Improved Extrapolation Scheme for Truncated CT Data Using 2D Fourier-Based Helgason-Ludwig Consistency Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biomedical Imaging, 2017
We improve data extrapolation for truncated computed tomography (CT) projections by using Helgason-Ludwig (HL) consistency conditions that mathematically describe the overlap of information between projections. First, we theoretically derive a 2D Fourier

Image-Dehazing Method Based on the Fusion Coding of Contours and Colors

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
The dehazing of images shot in fog is a hot spot in the study of computer vision. Unlike dehazing methods, which use an atmospheric scattering model, the method proposed here is based on fusion coding of contours and colors.
